[QUOTE="ExtremelyW0rried, post: 1708106, member: 429908"] It depends though doesn't it? My diabetes has become brittle and unpredictable. It stops me doing a lot of things. I will never take my children on holiday for example. I won't ever take them to a water park or theme park. It stopped me drinking at university and made me the odd one out. It has meant I haven't been able to go to nightclubs because they wouldn't let me in with my insulin. I struggled through my NQT teaching year as the stress made my sugars consistently high 20s before plummeting as soon as I left work and giving me terrible lows. It meant my second child was 7 weeks prem and had to be ventilated when born. Minor things I suppose. It stopped my dad being an airline pilot. He now has a private pilot licence but my god the hoops he has to jump through and I believe they are no longer allowing t1s to have PPLs, only keep them if you already have one. [/QUOTE]
